Correct, there's no future for N/A high output/capacity engines.

S54 would never meet forthcoming Euro 5 emissions.

This month also saw Honda announcing that they are withdrawing the K20 Vtec Civic Type R from European sale by the end of the year, as this engine also won't meet Euro 5.

Current M3 will be last n/a ///M car as BMW simply arn't going to develop a car it can't sell in it's own country.
